Pit Bulls - My 3 month old pitbull puppy doesnt really eat and has watery poop.


Expert: Marie Peppers - 3/31/2008

Question
We also changed what the first owners puppy food from kirkland   signature puppy food, to Blue Buffalo chicken and rice puppy food. And do you know anything that i can give or do to this puppy because this is the first time I have had a puppy and this puppy doesnt even walk when i put the leash on him he freezes. I want this puppy to be playful and walk around while im in his sight, not when im not there. Today is the second day i had this puppy.

Answer
Hello Harp:  Ok, this is all new to this little boy.  You can change the food but it is a slow process.  It should be 1/2 the old food :Kirkland and then 1/2 the Blue Buffalo for 2 weeks..
( after about 2 weeks you can  go to all Blue Buffalo)  This is why his poops are watery. Also, he must have a bunch of gas...
So, get another bag of Kirkland, if you got rid of the other bag.

Next, How about some pumpkin filling ( pure pumpkin) canned - You can give him 1/4 a cup per day.. This will firm up the poops.. He will love the taste.

As far as leashes and walking... Get him a harness and use that for walking.. A harness feels much better to a pup than a collar.  He should be given the harness a few times per day.. So he won't be afraid of it.  Don't keep it on him when you are not around because he may eat it.

Here is an idea of a soft harness:  all colors ... you don't need to get pink for him..  The photo is in pink:

A good vitamin for pit bull kids is NuVET Plus - It is very good to start him on a Supplement right away.. Here is the link:

Best wishes with your new pup
